International Justice Cracks Down on Cameroonian Ambazonia Leaders

Ayaba Cho, Eric Tataw, and Edith Ngang Amongst Other Ambazonia Leaders Detained.

A growing number of Cameroonian Ambazonia leaders are facing heavy penalties in international courts, marking a significant turn in the judicial case of the Anglophone crisis.

Eric Tataw, arrested on April 24, faces up to 15 years in prison for his involvement in financing terrorism, money laundering, and illegal arms exportation.

This development is part of a larger trend of international arrests and convictions targeting separatist figures. Edith Ngang, a member of the "Ambazonian interim government," is serving a four-year sentence in a US federal prison for illegal arms exportation to Cameroon.

Others, including Tse Erneh Sunday and Tamfu Nchumuchu, have received similar sentences.

The evidence against these Ambazonia leaders appears to be substantial, with video and audio recordings, as well as financial transactions, serving as key evidence.

Lucas Ayaba Cho, a prominent figure in the Ambazonia movement, was apprehended in Norway in September 2024 and is facing charges of "crimes against humanity."

The wave of international arrests and convictions has sparked speculation about the potential impact on the Ambazonia movement in Cameroon's Anglophone regions.
